Shutting down MG resources

[ULTRA Random ViruS]

It was tons of fun while it lasted, thanks everyone

Well at least the masterlist isn't completely unusable and kdude did a fine job on his part, maybe we can get everyone to direct their sv_dlurl to his site or something.

thank you Khalsa it has been a fun time.

maybe servers should fix the upload speed limit or something.

I wonder if Trem will still hang around for years like Gloom does.... kind of hard to kill a very addictive game, some damn fools won't give up on it.

Speaking for myself, I play occasionally on AA when it's populated. I'm most likely to play at 12:30, 17:00 or 21:00 (UTC+00:00). If us damn fools could learn each others habits a little we have a better chance of playing games together many years down the line, even if it's just the occasional small game for the sake of nostalgia.

Odly enough the only reason why I don't play on AA is because my gun doesn't shoot straight. (And yes, i'm using the pure client, the server only allows pure cgame.qvms anyway, wtf is going on)

We already passed the point of hanging around for years.

Ah, good times, I remember Trem being one of the best free FPS games in 2006 to 2007. Shame it never got updated.
Playing on the Derelict servers was fun, I dont know if anyone remembers a user called Megabite, he used to run his own website for mods and maps.

Gloom isn't entirely dead yet either, and it's older still. Somehow, a few diehards hang on.

It's sad that Tremulous never attracted the kind of enthusiastic long-lasting effort into development, and the time required, that it needed. At least the game has accumulated plenty of mods, and there are still a lot of servers online. A few of which continue to be intensely active. That'll keep my interest in the game for awhile longer.

I got cse to host a gloom server for Australians btw. Oh wait, did I already tell you about this?

1. You probably didn't even know that Tremulous 1.2 GamePlay Preview came out did you?
2. I'm actually a handyman for [Derelict] server in 1.1. Feel free to drop by anytime.

Pity that the GPP version hasn't really caught on. It needs more work, but the most recent commit was at least 4 months ago. Has it been abandoned too?

Interesting...Who does this mean will manage Tremulous.net (and who has the rights to the domain)? Does this leave anyone with the 'rights' to Tremulous? Does this leave anyone on the/a dev team? I have been interested in bringing back SST and perhaps doing up some advertising and perhaps 'bringing it back to life', if you will...

Let me know,

OH SHIT IT'S MEOW.  I thought you'd vanished entirely.

thank you Khalsa it has been a fun time.

Hey, what's up face?

[SamOz]

Does anyone still play GPP?

Every time I've checked, the servers were dead zones of vast emptiness. There were just 4.

Some 1.1 servers are still pointing to the mg site, so I decided to quickly hack together a script ("super secret project") to make it really incredibly easy for even the laziest of server operators to have working downloads again. Just

Code: [Select]

set sv_wwwBaseURL "http://betaserv.tk/mg"
sets sv_dlURL "http://betaserv.tk/mg"
There are two problems though:

• If the operators of a Tremulous server are too lazy to update their download URL then they are too lazy to update their download URL
• There's a good chance the clients don't support redirects (and where can they tell people to download better clients when the mg site is down?)

Are you sure  was on the Mercenaries Guild site?Try http://mirror.kdude63.com/mercenaries_guild/

The idea is that requests from Tremulous for real files will be properly redirected (unless there was some error on my side, in which case, please inform me, but not until then). E.g., if a server has sv_dlURL = "https://betaserv.tk/mg" and the server switches to atcs3, clients who do not have the map will send a request for https://betaserv.tk/mg/base/map-atcs3.pk3, which will be redirected appropriately. Requesting https://betaserv.tk/mg directly is silly (hence not being a link).

Requests for https://betaserv.tk/mg now do closer to what you might expect. Links are based on indexed files from the MG repository; any weird names or duplicate files are preserved. If you have any questions or come across any errors, tell me about it.
A couple notes: links that do not work are probably for files it doesn't currently have any valid links for. Additionally, a few (10) indexed files seem to have not been valid on the MG site and are excluded from the list.

Edit: betaserv.tk was broken for a while and is now fixed. Sorry for that.
